Chelsea have begun their plans for the 2021 summer play window and have two positions in their brains that need improvement, according to reports: Frank Lampard and play guru Marina Granovskaia need a new central defender and a new midfielder.
Chelsea had a summer move-in window, spending nearly 250 million pounds on new recruits.
After going through their movement ban, the club spent the money they earned from the sale of Eden Hazard in 2019, and something else, next to Lampard.
Kai Havertz, the highest beloved addition, with the German prodigy costing Bayer Leverkusen 72 million pounds.
However, overall prices can reach 90 million pounds, once the Blues have paid the bills and add-ons.

Hakim Ziyech charges them 37. 5 million pounds, while Timo Werner and Ben Chilwell bought for 53 million pounds and 50 million pounds, respectively.
Lampard also solved his goalkeeper’s conundrum by bringing Edouard Mendy to Lille’s club on a 22 million pound contract.
However, there are still positions where club leaders are sold precisely.
According to Football London, The Star, Chelsea officials plan to bring in a new central defender and a new defensive midfielder next summer.

Chelsea have signed two new central defenders this summer, with Thiago Silva and Malang Sarr arriving with loose transfers.
Silva, 36, left Paris Saint-Germain at the end of his contract last season and signed a one-year deal, while Sarr, 21, came from OGC Nice and loaned to Porto.
Lampard still doesn’t seem happy with his defense and has abandoned Antonio Rudiger. The German defender was introduced to clubs this summer when the club was trying to locate a new home for the 27-year-old.
West Ham star Declan Rice is believed to be one of Lampard’s main targets, but an offer stopped after the Hammers demanded 73 million pounds for their services.

However, they can rekindle their interest in a year when they will have a new moving budget at their disposal.
Rice, who has gone through Chelsea’s academy, would be open to that resolution and his long-term might be decided through West Ham’s prestige in the Premier League: David Moyes’s look is lately one of the clubs prone to fighting relegation.
Lampard would like to play Rice, 21, as a three-man power plant.
The other position Rice could play, however, is Chelsea’s other precedence for next year.
The Blues sought to recruit a new defensive midfielder this summer and would even have listened to N’Golo Kante’s offers.
Jorginho also promorated a possible move to Arsenal, but the Gunners eventually activated Thomas Partey’s release clause.
Chelsea has also been linked to a Boubakary Soumare movement in the past, and it’s an idea that they’ll only do formal research next summer.
The 21-year-old has been impressive in Lille, and will only have 12 months of contract left at the opening window next summer, and can be purchased at a discounted price.
